I always loved SimCity 3000. It was the first city builder I'd ever played.

I can still hear that smooth jazz playing and the sound of screams when I sent a robot and a tornado barreling through the city.

I really want a modern old school style city builder. I tried cities skyline but it was too complicated. Like parkitect is to planet coaster.

Skylines is complicated?!?

Fair enough I guess, have you tried citiesXL? Older and dead but even more of a city painter I believe.

Compared to Sim City 3000 and Sim City 4, Cities Skylines’ UI feels really convoluted to me.
